Map Elements
- Frontier Borders appear as red lines between two bordering regions.
- The player's current position is marked with an Orange arrow
. - If particular regions appear darkened on the map it means they are not included for the current war or the region server is offline/restarting.
Map Coordinates
A grid is superimposed on the Region the player is currently in, allowing to know specific coordinates of a map:
- letters A-Q indicate horizontal coordinates
- numbers 1-15 indicate vertical coordinates.
Each large square on the grid is 125m by 125m, and each is subdivided into 9 small squares. With this you can transmit very accurate location info, simply say "G9k3" (k for keypad) for example.
